Why do we need it?

Education
 Medical physics graduate students
 Medical physics residents
 Medical physics PostDocs
 Medical residents

Beta site
 Site visitors
 New version/feature trials

Clinical Research
 Phantom study
 Patient research
Special Requirement







Not for clinical use
No or limited service support
Full functionality
New technique trials
Mimic/use real clinical environment
Some degree of isolation from clinical
Access requirement
 Large number of users
 Simultaneous access in limited time
 Error prevention
 Crash frequently
Typical Setup

Vendor supplied the research/education only workstations
 Typically single workstation/server setup
 Full functionality
 No clinical patients can be planned and treated

Dedicated partial isolation from clinical use
 institution/department/patients level
 commissioned machine level

Mixed use
 Same commissioned machine
 Separate plan/trials or course/plans
User management

Generic account
 Easy to manage
 Dedicated user for students
 Student can easily share

Individual account
 Take time to manage users
 Especially disable user after graduation
 Student still can access other’s plan
Test Plan

Plan starting point
 Dicom Image + Contours
 Partially finished plan

Plan Evaluation
 Reference plan
 Dose constraint
 Evaluation discussion

Clean up
 Delete interim/non-ideal test plan
 Delete all plans after graduation
 Disable account or delete account
Backup and Recovery


Dedicated system
 System backup after upgrade
 Sample patient, plan or imaging data
 User plan can be deleted after completion
 Eclipse, clone the whole disk after setup
 Pinnacle, ufsdump/ufsrestore also works
 User should be responsible backup own plans
Shared system
 System backup as part of clinical use
 only sample patient, plan or imaging data need to backup
separately from clinical one
 User test plan should not be included in clinical backup,
individual plan backup can be done be user.
Upgrade

Dedicated system
 Typically install fresh new system
 Restore the commissioned machines
 Restore the sample patients as needed

Shared system
 Test if the backup can be restored to new version
 Finish clinical upgrade first
 Create required isolation
 Restore the machine and sample patient as needed
Patient Data Sharing






Non-clinical to clinical
 Not supported
Clinical to non-clinical
 Anonymize might be needed
Same system different version
 Eclipse
 Pinnacle
Different system
 Pinnacle to Eclipse
 Eclipse to Pinnacle
 BrainLab to Pinnacle
Same institution
 Redundancy reduction
Different institution
 HAPPA issue
Protocol and Template Sharing

Pinnacle
 Protocol is a group of script,
 Can be copied, edited and loaded

Eclipse
 Template is xml file
 Can be exported and imported
 Be aware of version difference, always double check.
Why do physicists need planning training?






When short of dosimetrist staff
Emergency case without dosimetrist support
Difficult cases that dosimetrist have not time to
handle
New program setup
Plan check/Chart Check
Some junior physicist position with job duty as
planner

Physics Resident Training Steps

Phantom study --- find the TPS planning options and limitations

TG-119 test case

RTOG dry run case

RTOG phantom study

Typical training test case --- clinical planning skill

Sequence: prostate, lung, brain, breast, head&neck

Case number: how many is enough?

planning need to consider simulation and treatment

Uncommon training test case --- experience to handle difficult cases

Metal artifact: like prosthesis, breast expander, dental filling

Simulation mistake: arm in beam, non-bladder control, object on patient

Dose limiting: pacemaker/ICD, fetus, gonad

Electron: small field, large oblique, extended SSD, backscatter for keloid

Breast: Flash, breast expander

Nose/extremities: water, rice, bolus

